I've only tried Blue, but it's one of my favorite aftershaves, especially after using a soap with a barber shop scent. I'm halfway through one bottle, and have only one spare remaining. I can't imagine why they would stop making this traditional aftershave.

Thanked: 4206The orange that Tom sent me, true story. Wasn’t ready for the numb face but grew to really love it.
Never tried the blue either, but it sounds great.

I managed to get the Orange whilst on holiday in Spain. i like it a lot, old school fragrance in my opinion, very nice on the dry down.
An Italian acquaintance in Qatar went back to Italy for a few days, I had him on the lookout for the Blue, alas he did not manage to find it, but brought me back a large bottle of the Orange and some Proraso soap.Last edited by easyace; 12-25-2018 at 05:33 AM. Reason: Typo

It is a pity that Floid Blue has been discontinued.
It wasn't the be-all, end-all of barbershop scents. But it had it's own place, that nothing else really filled. I was never ashamed to wear and enjoy it, and let my freak flag fly. I'm blessed to still have an original bottle still 2/3rds full, which I will ration out for my remaining life. Those Italians are the shit.
It's not like a ton of others are making down-home barbershop aftershave scents to replace it, either.

I wish you would tell me what an end all. Be all aftershave is. Cause I ain’t found any so I guess they all fall short. As far as the blue scents go it’s in my opinion one of the better ones.

Thanked: 4206I am tempted to buy some too, but having never tried the original I have nothing to compare it too.
So my review will be useless aside from saying if it’s “nice”,
I await the feedback from someone in the nose.
